  1. That May return date is looking less and less likely.
  2. Rather than getting buried in other posts, figured it might be helpful to have a separate thread for this. First one:
  3. Patrick Sandoval is starting for WOO today.
  4. KC still isn't getting the exit velos we want to see. Only one pitch was above 91 mph (the groundout). It's going to take time for him to come around as his approach is very different than what it was previously.
  5. He's on the inactive list, but I assume he'll end up in the pen. Who knows though.
  6. I wasn't tearing down your post at all. Just showing how poorly they've performed so far. Also, there's legitimate concern about Mayer.
  7. Hard for a LHP to really bury a pitch low and away against a RHB, but especially for Hall who comes in on RHB's with his sweeper and curve. An 85 mph changeup at the top of the zone seems like a meatball to me. Per Statcast, the changeup is typically down in the zone for him, but he left both of his up to Story. Just a bad pitch.
  8. Let robots decide balk calls.
  9. I'm not sure there's been a start where Crochet has had his best stuff this year. If they didn't start Story, they lose the game. Maybe even IKF with his good defense at 3B. Cora made the right call and pinch hit Durbin. Sometimes it works out. It was going to be a high K game and going with Anthony/Story/Mayer/Duran was going to really put some zeros on the board early.
  10. Is that what it's called when you give up one run in 5 innings?
  11. Top 3 percentile hard hit. Top 9 percentile k rate. 0.00 ERA. 2.54 xERA.
  12. K% Story 35.3 (26.9 last year) Roman 34.0 (27.7 last year) Marcelo 33.3 (30.3 last year)
  13. Durbin's two RBI this season haven't been on scalding hit balls, but balls just put in play. Simply cutting down on k's and moving runners along will score runs.
  14. I summarized it in the prior post. Per Speier, 187 teams have gone 2-8 to start the season in the WS era. Only 12 have gone to the playoffs.
  15. Mullins: 1.2 IP, 5 ER
  16. I didn't write Speier's article!!!!!!! Don't yell at me!!!!!!
  17. Story is not the right guy. He's been out of the lineup for most of his tenure. Coulombe? A $1M reliever??? Sandoval hasn't pitched 1 inning!
  18. That's less of a big deal when it's still April 7th. The problem is that overall disfunction of the Red Sox. If there was a clear plan and it was just misfiring, then you they could continue on course.

  20. 2011 Tampa Bay Rays Per Speier, 187 teams have gone 2-8 to start the season in the WS era. Only 12 have gone to the playoffs.
